When I try to connect to the host, the TLS connection is refused. However, when I drop into bash in the container itself, I can connect to the gitlab interface with curl on port 8081. I would think that inside the container I would connect to 443. 8081 is for externally connecting into the host, and then is passed through to 443 in the container.

I am very confused at why this is happening if anyone has any thoughts or could correct my understanding.
